Nottingham fighter promises the WBA super-middleweight champiion a "serious whooping" when they meet later this year

Same matchup, different result? Carl Froch vows to defeat Mikkel Kessler in their world title rematch

Carl Froch has vowed to get his revenge over Mikkel Kessler after the Dane agreed to meet him again in the UK.

IBF champ Froch finally has the chance to avenge his 2010 loss to WBA king Kessler in a mouthwatering super-middleweight unification clash in May at either the O2 or Manchester Arena.

The three-time world champ said: “I seriously wish I was ringside myself for this fight because I’m gunning for revenge.

"Our first fight was pure warfare. We went at each other for every minute of every round and the rematch promises to be even more fiercely contested.

"If Mikkel thinks he saw the best of me in Denmark, then he is in for a rude awakening. I give him the utmost respect that he has the guts to board that plane and come collect a serious whooping at the hands of the Cobra.
